“Don’t judge me.”
I’ve heard that a lot. In other words, they’re asking for you to ignore the decision they’ve made.
“Yeah, I decided to do what I know is wrong. And I know that you know it’s wrong” But I’m trying to convince myself that I’m not a bad person for doing it. So please don’t mention that it’s wrong to me. Don’t use your brain when you think about me.”
Well, you know, I wouldn’t have to “judge” you if you used good judgment yourself when you made the decision to do something wrong. If you would do good, then you would want me to judge you and notice the good. It’s only when you do bad that you don’t want people using discernment about your behavior.
And keep in mind that my judgment can’t do much more than cause embarrassment or inconvenience to you. But we will all be judged by God for all of our thoughts and actions, and his judgment determines our eternity.
